Setting rules for when the X has the Kids

Ok yes my wife left me and started a whole new life with a new guy, she was seeing him three months before she left, and now until she gets her own place whe is living with him. Well the other day I let her have the kids over night with her since she missed them so much and when they got home I heard some things that I was not happy with. The biggest thing that bothered me was when my kids pointed out the fact that mom was in the bed with another guy, we had agreed that for now until things got further along that if she had the kids that she would sleep with them and not be with him. It is really easy for her to move on. So my question is how do you set up boundries with a reasonable expectation of them being followed when the X has the kids?

You may have agreed to not share a bed with someone else around the kids, but there is nothing you can do outside of communicate with your ex about your concern. The best thing to do is to ask her politely to consider your wishes, but don't expect her to agree.

I absolutly agree with browneyes. I've been remarried for 8yrs and my ex and I have a really great working relationship when it comes to our son, however, my husbands ex could give a rats ass as to working together for the greater good of there son.

If the two of you can have some type of respect for eachother as parents (which for me and my ex took 3years) you and she will be willing to comprimise in these ways. But yes, you will be more likley to get what you want if you say something nice to her before you ask for her not to sleep with this guy when your kids are around. Like, &quot;Even through all this mess I still think your a great mother to our children and I want to make sure the two of us stay on track and stick together on things that effect our kids. Just for now please stay with them while there with you at night. If you've ever had any respect for me as a father, please do this for me and the kids.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
